ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To assess the application of functional neuronavigation in surgeries of adult cerebral gliomas.METHODS:
We performed a retrospective analysis of 375 cases of adult cerebral glioma patients who underwent microsurgical treatment between 2011 and 2017 in our department. Among them, 142 patients underwent surgery using functional neuronavigation (group A), and the other 233 patients were operated on without the help of functional neuronavigation (group B). For both groups, we categorized them into several subgroups according to the lesion locations.RESULTS:
A significant difference in the gross total resection rate was observed between group A and group B (P = 0.001 for overall; P = 0.036 for EO area; and P = 0.004 for BBT area). The postoperative complication rate of group A was much lower than that of group B (P = 0.003 for overall; and P = 0.016 for BBT area). The postoperative 6-month Karnofsky Performance Scale score of all patients in group A was significantly higher than that of group B. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses showed significant increases in the median survival time of group A compared with that of group B (P < 0.001 for overall; P = 0.012 for EO area; P = 0.006 for BBT area), and the Cox proportional regression analysis estimated the hazard ratio of the functional neuronavigation to be 0.533, helping reduce the risk of death by 46.7%.CONCLUSIONS:
This study confirmed that the application of neuronavigation in adult glioma surgery can improve postoperative quality of life and lengthen the survival time of patients, especially in cases involving the brainstem and the eloquent area.Palavras-chave
